Am planning on trying to put up 3  1/2 waves on 40mtrs. and wonder if
anyone knows the maximum power that RG8X will handle on a relatively
short run less than 100 feet....I know I would probably be better off
with something like 213 or the like but am concerned with the weight
factor....Anyone had any major meltdowns using the lighter feed line.
Thanks,
Ted    K9HUH
